  I have noticed that many folks are haveing problems with getting
HyperNeWS (and therefore GoodNeWS) 1.3 up.  Many have gotten a message
about an error in .user.ps and dont know what the problem is.
  While testing HyperNeWS I found that it is VERY important that you
add $GNHOME/bin and $HNHOME/bin to your PATH before you start HyperNeWS.
If you add the bin directorys to your .login be sure to login again or
to source the .login file.

  For documentation on HyperNeWS and GoodNeWS look at the manual stacks for
each under the Applicatoins stacks button on the left edge of the screen
when HyperNeWS is up and running.

  One note, I think that GoodNeWS its self will be going away and that
HyperNeWS will be whats left when Turing is done.  The parts of GoodNeWS
that HyperNeWS uses will will end up in HyperNeWS I guess.
  This is why I talk of HyperNeWS first and sometimes add GoodNeWS
second in prens.
